I don't think I need a professional comedian's help to make fun of RP. I think I'm doing just fine on my own. But thanks for the suggestion.

Update from Blue Square.

With candidates dropping out, somehow Ron Paul's odds are growing larger Exclamation Considering that RP is 1st or 2nd in 22 states on Yahoo's election dashboard, and that there is going to be a brokered convention, it sounds like a prime opportunity here, worth 10 bucks each on the presidency (200-1) and nomination (100-1).

Worth noting is that odds on a Democratic win have been inching longer, from 2/5, then 4/9, to now 1/2.


Next US President

Hillary Clinton 5/4

John McCain 15/8

Barack Obama 11/4

Mitt Romney 14/1

Michael Bloomberg 40/1

Mike Huckabee 66/1

Ron Paul 200/1

Republican Nomination

John McCain 1/7

Mitt Romney 4/1

Mike Huckabee 25/1

Ron Paul 100/1

Democratic Nomination

Hillary Clinton 4/9

Barack Obama 13/8

Winning Party

Republicans 3/2

Democrats 1/2

I am not completely sure, but I believe that is how late you can bet until odds are updated.
